Oshadhi Select Grapefruit (Citrus paradisi) Essential Oil is a therapeutic quality aromatherapy essential oil from Cuba, obtained from the rind of the fruit.

Grapefruit is the ultimate pick-me-up. It has a sweet, zesty, citrus aroma which is marvellously cooling, cleansing and refreshing. This can be useful both for short term remedies (try using Grapefruit for relieving fatigue on long trips) or in the long term for refreshing a jaded outlook on life. Sniff it directly from the bottle or use it in an aroma diffuser. Grapefruit also has a detoxifying effect, making it a useful addition to anti-cellulite and other detoxifying massage blends. It is a useful ingredient in skincare preparations, particularly for oily or acneic skin. Grapefruit blends well with Bergamot, Lavender, Geranium, Cypress, Palmarosa, Ginger and Frankincense. Use Pink Grapefruit in the same way, but enjoy its sweeter fragrance.

USING ESSENTIAL OILS EVERY DAY!

Ambient DiffusionDiffusers disperse essential oils into the air with a cool air stream or gentle warmth. They are ideal for cleansing and purifying the air and for creating a mood-setting, fragrant atmosphere. Use 4-8 drops of essential oil on the replaceable cartridge or pad for cool air diffusion. Use 25 drops or more in a nebulizer. Use 3-5 drops on warming diffusers. Refresh as needed.

Massage and Body OilMassage is considered by many to be one of the best ways to experience aromatherapy due to the combined benefits of touch and essential oils. Massage relaxes muscles and improves muscle tone, circulation, and lymph flow. it relieves physical tension and, in turn, mental stress. Standard dilution is 20 drops of essential oil to 2 ounces of vegetable oil or fragrance-free lotion. Sensitive skin may require a lower amount, such as 10 drops in 2 ounces, or less if necessary.It's easy to make your own therapeutic massage oils using Oshadhi synergy blends. Simply add one-half of the 10 ml bottle of essential oil into one 200 ml bottle of Oshadhi organic carrier oil such as sweet almond, hazelnut, or sunflower. This makes a 2 1/2% dilution--perfect for a therapeutic massage and body oil.

BathBaths combine the restorative effects of both water and essential oils in a most pleasurable way. They are perfect to relieve muscle strain, soothe skin conditions, and promote emotional balance. Use 8-10 drops to a full tub of water. it is best to add the essential oil after you have immersed yourself, so you receive the full benefits of the oils as they begin to diffuse in the warm water.

Direct: InhalationInhale the fragrance, three or four times, through the nose directly from the bottle or from a tissue sprinkled with 4 drops of essential oil.

Direct: ApplicationCertain situations require a specific, direct application. In these cases, a stronger dilution is used for a brief period of time. The essential oils can be diluted in a carrier oil, or other medium such as aloe vera gel or witch hazel. Certain essential oils such as lavender and tea tree can be used undiluted for small areas such as an insect bite or scratch. Experiment with the strength and adjust to a higher dilution if there is skin irritation. To start: 10 drops of essential oil in 1 teaspoon of carrier oil.

ShowerAfter your shower, put 3-5 drops of essential oil in your hands and rub them together. While your skin is till damp from the shower, quickly and evenly spread the oil over your arms, legs, and torso. Allow to dry.

Foot BathFoot baths are a wonderful way to pamper yourself--perfect when you do not have time for a full bath. Remember: when your feet feel good, you feel good all over! Use 2-4 drops in a tub of water. Adjust the temperature of the water to suit your needs: cool water invigorates and energizes, warm water sedates and relaxes.

CompressA compress is a clean, damp, folded cloth that has been infused with essential oils and then applied to the skin. It employs either warm or cool water, depending on its use. Fill a basin with water and add 2-5 drops of essential oil. Stir briskly, lay in the cloth, wring, and apply.

SaunaPut one drop of essential oil on the hot rocks or mix 5 drops of essential oil in one cup of water and pour over rocks.

PerfumePersonal fragrancing is an alluring way to express yourself. Mix 10-20 drops of essential oil in 1 tablespoon of jojoba oil. Apply to one or more of the pulse points--behind the ears, underside of the wrist, inner elbow, behind the knees, and on the backs of the ankles.

MeditationUsing aromatics for meditation and spiritual focus has been used for thousands of years. Oshadhi has several oils well-suited for this purpose, such as frankincense, patchouli, sandalwood, and myrrh. Diffuse in the area or put a drop in your hands, rub them together and inhale the aroma.

Add to CosmeticsEssential oils can be added to pre-made, fragrance-free products. Use 10-15 drops per 2 ounces of moisturizer; 20-3- drops per 8 ounces of lotion; 20 drops per 8 ounces of shampoo; and 20-30 drops per 8 ounces of conditioner.

MistMisting is a convenient way to impart the enticing aroma of essential oils in the room or on your skin. Fill an 8 ounce mister bottle with 20-30 drops of essential oils. Shake vigorously each time before misting.
